Spring Maintenance for Your Vehicle

Spring has sprung, and it's time to make sure your vehicle is in good working order so you can make it safely to your warm weather activities. Winter can bring some extreme wear and tear on your vehicle, through the salt that's on the roads, the cold temperatures, and hazardous driving. Now it's time to get everything back into pristine working order, and we know just what to do! At Bledsoe's Towing and Automotive, we take pride in getting you back on the road and keeping you there with the best car maintenance at the Lake of the Ozarks. Here are a few important things you'll want to have checked on now that winter is behind us.


Batteries, Plugs, and Wires, OH MY!

If you want the spark in your vehicle to continue working, you'll want to make sure that the batteries, plugs, and wires are in good working order. Winter can compromise the performance of these pieces up to 60 percent. We can test and replace old or weak batteries, plugs, and wires, especially if they are older than three years.

Check Your Tire Pressure

The colder weather can reduce the pressure in your tires, so it's important to keep an eye on them. You'll also want to make sure that they are properly inflated and balanced as well. At Bledsoe's Towing & Automotive, we can help you make sure that all four of your tires are in good working order.

Belts and Hoses

If your belts are older than five years, you'll want to have them replaced, and now is as good of a time as any! We can inspect them and then replace the worn or cracked belts and hoses that are blistered, brittle, or too soft.



Brakes

No matter where you live, if you've driven through any type of snow or ice, it's always advisable to inspect the brake system. This includes the lines, hoses, parking brake, and brake fluid. The brakes on our vehicle are extremely important, and something as simple as need a brake pad change can put an end to your worries.

Fluid Levels

Engine oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, antifreeze/coolant, and even windshield washer fluid can affect the reliability of your vehicle if they aren't at the correct levels. When all of these are checked, you may find that your car begins to run as good as new!

Windshield Wipers

Ice and snow can play a mean trick on your windshield wipers. They can also get torn, ripped, and chipped from the harsh weather. New windshield wipers can make a world of difference when you are trying to drive through the rainy spring season.
